Graduation Gifting

Where has the time gone? I can’t believe it is already mid-April but what is even more outrageous is that graduation season is just around the corner. I know many of you graduating seniors are starting to get excited about all the graduation parties you have coming up next month! Although, in the midst of all the excitement, many people forget that this is also the time to find graduation presents for all your friends. The past years, people have done the typical gifts of stationary, monogrammed towels, and college-specific snuggies, and while these are all great gifts (and probably still useful for boys), I think it should be time to shake it up. Considering that I now have two years of college under by belt, I think I can confidently say what new college girls would want and need. While browsing through the Internet the past few days, I have come up with a bunch of options that you can find right here at Dormify.

Laptop sleeves are a very good gift to give incoming college freshman. I use mine almost everyday when I take my computer to class or to the library. It is also fun to have one that has a cute and bright print. Check out this one along with other variations all available on Dormify!

These key-chain wallets are very practical for a new college freshman. It is somewhere to put your ID card, license, money or credit cards and then attach that to your keys. I have one myself and its great to have because its small but holds everything I need perfectly. I can throw it in my backpack on the way to class or in my purse when I’m about to go out for the night. Take a look at these different colors!

This book has become somewhat of a revelation to college girls. I’ve had a few friends read it over the past summer and it completely changed their outlook on dieting and working out. It is not necessarily about how to lose weight, but just helps you keep in shape and eat healthier. Going to college comes with a lot of stress and changes, and this book helps it’s readers keep a clear mind and doesn’t let food and laziness become the solution to their problems. For a girl that is just starting college and wants to keep her health in check, this is for her.

Earbuds are a easy and very necessary gift for an incoming college freshman. Whether your studying in the library and a girl is chewing gum extremely loud, or your roommate is listening to awful music at her desk, earbuds can solve almost any noise pollution problem. Although, most of your friends probably already have headphones, it is nice to have a pair with comfy ear buds and in a cute color.

And finally, you can’t go wrong with a gift card. Especially one from Dormify! There are so many things here that will be useful and fun for a friend that is just starting college in the fall. Whether it be a throw pillow, or one of the many new kits, she will be sure to find something here. Purchase one online today!
